Three Things About Apathy

Apathy is:

*the absence of passion

*void of emotion

*unconcerned

*uncaring

*immovable

*inactive

Apathy tells us:

*it doesn't matter

*someone else will do it

*it's not your concern

*out of sight, out of mind

*you can't help

Apathy allows:

*22,000 children under the age of 5 to die from preventable causes

*people to go uncared for, unloved, and unseen

*children to be orphans

*mothers to watch their babies suffer, unable to do anything to help them

*darkness to take hold

Will you allow apathy towards those in poverty to continue?  Or will you fight back?  Will you ignite a passion for those less fortunate?  Or will we continue to sit in our air conditioned homes, watching our cable TV, while playing on our smart phones and drinking our gourmet coffee while poverty takes the hopes and the dreams and the lives of children all over the world.  Have you thought about that?  We are watching television while children are dying.  How can we rest?  What can we do?  For $38 a month you can help one of these children.  For $38 a month you can provide them with medical care, schooling, food, hygiene training.  You can break the cycle of poverty for their family.  $38 a month!  I bet you waste that easily...I know we do.  What is it worth to save someone's life?  What would you give up?  Will you sponsor a child?
